Data Sources

Monterey County Measure Q voting results data

Important Notes

  • Election related data are collected, reshaped, and made available by different organizations, from different sources, at different times and for different reasons.

  • This can all introduce discrepancies and errors in the information that is presented.

  • This is especially true when you mix and match data from different sources, as we do here.

  • And sometimes the data are made available from the source creators with errors. It’s incredibly difficult to produce an error free dataset.

  • So we caution you to be a critical user of data and ask questions when something seems amiss.
